Why Our Free Brake Inspection is Priceless

Tweet

ST. CLAIR SHORES, Mich.- Why is our FREE Brake Inspection priceless? Knowing your brakes are working properly gives you peace of mind and can also help you save money by avoiding more costly repairs down the road. Therefore, it is important to stay up to date on routine maintenance and brake inspections. Roy O'Brien Ford's factory-trained technicians will inspect your brakes and measure your pad thickness to determine if your brakes are safe.

Our factory-trained technicians will also inspect your rotors to determine their condition. If they are not in top condition, our technicians may recommend:


 Rotor Resurfacing 

• Recommended when rotors are uneven or damaged.
• The brake rotor is resurfaced using a brake lathe, creating a smooth surface of uniform thickness. 
• A flat rotor surface helps ensure smooth braking and the even wear of your brake pads over time.

Rotor Replacement

• Required when a rotor is below a minimum thickness and cannot be resurfaced.
• Helps restore your brakes like new.

When it comes to your safety, we don’t cut corners. That’s why we use Motorcraft® brakes, engineered and tested to meet Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards. Do competitive brake pads meet these rigorous tests?

Following are four key reasons you should consider Motorcraft brakes:

Stopping Distance
Motorcraft brakes are engineered and tested to meet Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards – a rigorous series of tests that measure stopping distance over repeated application so your brakes will stop on a dime.

Durability
While all brakes wear over time, Motorcraft brake pads and rotors are designed and tested for durability, thus helping reduce the frequency of brake repairs – your wallet appreciates this!

Improved Brake Pedal Feel
Braking should be effortless, just like when you bought your vehicle. When you apply pressure to the brake pedal, you expect the vehicle to stop.

Reduced Noise
Brake noise can be an annoyance. Motorcraft brakes are designed with noise dampeners to help ensure quiet braking. Silence is golden!

Spring Car Care Tips

Tweet

ST. CLAIR SHORES, Mich.- With dreams of warmer weather in the near future, we've started to think spring. Which means spring cleaning has appeared on our to-do list, and by spring cleaning we mean for the car. But instead of trying to clean up the mess that winter made all at once, get your vehicle ready for spring with our easy Spring Car Car Tips that each take only 10 minutes or less!

When it comes to Spring Car Care Tips, we're keening it simple. Try one at a time and your vehicle will be squeaky clean in no time!

-Next time you go out to the car, bring a bag and throw away any garbage or things you don't need.
-Clean the mats. Take your mats out next time you get out of the car. Wash them off and then hang them to dry so they're ready to go next time you get in the car.
-Keep dust away year round by adding a microfiber cloth to your glove box. Whenever you notice it getting dusty, just grab the cloth and wipe it off.
-Wash the windows inside and out. Cleaning off that dusty film on the windshield and the fingerprints in the back seat will increase your visibility.
-Wash the car. If it's too cold to wash it yourself, go to the car wash and ask for a wash that includes the undercarriage so you can get rid of all the salt from winter and prevent corrosion.
-Vacuum it out. If it's a hassle to get the vacuum out to the car, stop by the do-it-yourself car wash next time your out and use the high-powered vacuum.
-Do a windshield wiper check. Michigan's harsh winter conditions can take a toll on your wipers. Make sure they aren't streaking or cracked, otherwise it's time to replace them.
-Do a tire check. As the temperature changes make sure your tires are properly inflated and as while you're at it make sure they have adequate tread.

Since we're pretty sure you don't want to spend the whole day cleaning your vehicle, keep these Spring Car Care Tips in mind and in less than 10 minutes a day, you'll be ready to cruise into warmer weather! If spring cleaning isn't your thing we'd be happy to help you out.
